Community Matters: Women in Local Politics

Description: YWCA Hartford Region's Community Matters presents a timely and informative session, "Women in Local Politics". Local political offices make important decisions about how your local taxes are spent, how your public safety is administered, how local schools educate your children, all key issues the impact the quality of life for you, your family, neighborhood and community.

Our featured speaker is Patricia Russo, Executive Director of the Women's Campaign School at Yale, who will lead a discussion, provide informative tips & resources, and answer questions on how to become involved in local politics.

This can be your first step towards greater political involvement and an opportunity to advocate and advance social justice, equality and dignity into local policies and laws.
